Obituary: Gianetto, Rose Marie


GIANETTO,
Rose Marie

Our beloved mother was born in Phillipsburg, NJ on October 5, 1916 to Sebastian Todaro (1885 - 1966 Sicily) and Anna Todaro (1896 - 1984 Sicily).

Rose married Robert A. Gianetto (1918 - 2001) in 1940 and had four loving children, Ann Marie, Robert M. (Marilyn) and twins Thomas, and Lawrence (1952 - 1987).

Loving grandchildren Lori (Jon) Bare of Washington and Gina (Tony) Clarke of California as well as devoted grandchildren Harper, Jackson and Lucy.

She is predeceased by sisters Lena Leardi, Peter, Grace, Salvatore and Joseph Todaro of Pennsylvania and New Jersey.

Sister Anne Marie Grando lives in Pennsylvania.



Rose was resident of Pennsylvania and New Jersey and more recently in Pacific Palisades and Palm Springs, CA.

There was none finer a homemaker and mother, devoted to family and friends, and all of her pets throughout the years, especially Luca, her Australian Shepherd.

She was happiest in helping others, and was a fantastic cook, gardener, dancer, avid reader and best friend.

She was a mother and mentor to all who came into her life and will be very greatly missed.



A Vigil will be held on Friday, April 15th at 7 pm at Hennessey Funeral Home.

Funeral services will be held on Saturday, April 16 at St. Aloysius Catholic Church on the campus of Gonzaga University, Mass of Christian Burial at 1:00 pm, with entombment afterwards at Fairmount Memorial Park in Spokane.
